Argued with my mom over the phone again.
Mom: What do you want to work for?
Me: For war.
Mom: What?
Me: Military, yes.
Mom: Why do you want to work for the military?
Me: To earn money.
Mom: Why can't you find some other job?
Me: It will be less fun lolI don't know what went wrong (my answers sounded ok and simple to me) but apparently my last sentence was enough to warrant me 40 minutes of parental harassment (I'm such a bad son. :'() spanning the kitchen of my house and the passenger seat of my father's car (he should have been sleeping lol) and the corridor right outside the classroom just to find out that I'm late and brought the wrong bag *facepalm* and then she just can't understand either why I refuse to go to the South Korean military and work for Pakistani or Iranian defense industry instead. (*cough* MUSLIM BASTARDS *cough*) It's simple; They pay more. (Was that hard to understand?) You don't even need to be a Pakistanian/Pakistanese/Pakan (what the hell do we call the citizens of Pakistan?) or an Iranian to work for their military, (it's one of those countries where foreign workers are more valued than domestic workers) and they have a lot of opportunities for skilled people who can do more than just load ammo or wield guns around; (it's irrelevant anyway, I can't join their rank-and-file) I plan to invent them strategic assessment and simulation softwares using video game technology for their CO training programs in my lifetime. (Until then I'll be teaching Iranians how to clean rpgs and helicopter blades properly) I didn't tell mom that but she went on to drone about the negative effects of video games anyway. (Apparently she thinks its the effect of Fallout 3
) I can't work for South Korea because they'll end up buying off the kind of software I
might develop (note the emphasis) from U.S. or some other country, and that kills the purpose of my entrepreneurship. I'm not betting on a fat chance either, considering that there are already many tactical simulators produced by the gaming industry that are used by official military organizations. (All branches of the U.S. military except the Navy and the Coast Guard; Israel Defense Force; etc.) They lack a strategic simulator, though. It's one reason why Israel made such a big mess in the 2006 Lebanon conflict; their commanders fail, big time. I hope my simulators can help commanders learn how conduct wars properly and have fun learning it. I see so much wasted potentials in video games. (There's EU, Hearts of Iron, Defcon, Flashpoint series, just too many)
And now she's calling me again. (and I'm ranting on an anime forum lol)
The post's such a big mess.
